Good luck

No drain..... but can't wait till i start getting all my protein in so i have some more energy

Hi and good luck with ur journey

I was told i need to be smoke free for the rest of my life.

I am 6 days out and happy that i am up too 4 oz a hr .... would love info on drinking more without getting sick. Seeing the Dr again on Friday maybe he can help

I have alot a gas too it dose suck .....plus i haven't had a real bm yet which is because i am swollen at my small intestines which really sucks but dr says if thats the only side effect i am having i am still lucky and in 3 months it will all be worth it. So try to get all fluids in and look at the light at the end of tunnel.

More prayers the better and i will say one for u june 12

Nope mine is in 9 hrs

Congratulations on ur journey

Wow u have been though alot to get where u r now .... i know how nervous i have gotten during this journey i can only imagine how nervous u are.

Okay less than 12 hrs now i am getting really nervous ..... plus my boss called me asked if i could please come into work tonight .... had to explain no i have stuff to get ready plus a two hr drive to get the hospital. Isn't that the point of taking time off?

Hope u heal fast...... feel better soon

Good luck with ur surgery next week

Congrats on ur surgery...

I am on day 13 no cheating, i think the dr would be mad if he cut me open and found pizza or chicken in me. Not having food is helping me build a different realionship with food. Eat to live, not live to eat. That's what i keep telling myself.

Its a long wait but before u know it ur surgery will be here. I started all my classes and Dr visits last July so almost a year.

Congrats.

Can't believe in less than 24 hrs I will be in recovery ....but 3 am is going to come way to early for me. I am not really a morning person.

food. okay my surgery is tomorrow so i still have a while before i get food but i still like ur picture .....

The headache sucked but i drop 5 lbs the week i dropped soda i think its because i was drinking alot of water.

I was told from the dietician no caffeine for 3 to 6 months my dr told me to stay away from it for life it makes bad habits easier to come back. So dropping the habit i had a headache for a week. So i would try to give it up three weeks before date due to no nsaid before or after surgery. Well i guess that also depends on ur choice of headache medicine.

I am on a all liquid diet for two weeks slim fast 5 times a day and then sugar free drinks or jello

I am pre op till Thursday.

Yeppie on getting a date
